Chapter 1251: Jing Xiaolu's Idea (B)
"The Tian Family had always been serving the Sun Family, but he betrayed his master, the Sun Family, this time, and put the Sun Family under house arrest..." Yang Ming said, "Moreover, he paid a huge sum to the men, who originally belonged to the Sun Family, to control the Sun Family's business..."
Yang Ming told Jing Xiaolu about the news he got from Sui Yuejin, his own inferences, and the brotherhood between him and Tian Donghua. When it came to Tian Donghua, Yang Ming's heart was tight. How's Tian Donghua now? Such a brother was a true brother; he had a clear distinction between good and evil. He wouldn't hide and obey his father if his father did the wrong thing and would bravely stand up and criticize his father. Yang Ming was very grateful to him no matter what the outcome was.
"Paying a huge sum to buy loyalty?" Jing Xiaolu sighed. "No matter which industry, there are always some people who are greedy for money. This reminds me of the movie, Young and Dangerous [1], I've seen before. Shan Ji took a box of money from Taiwan and bought over Brother Kun's men easily..."
Jing Xiaolu told the truth; people can even risk their lives for money. These people weren't wrong; this was just human nature. Yang Ming couldn't control others' thoughts.
"This is true, but how can we solve this problem as soon as possible?" Yang Ming said, "I don't know where the Sun Family is being held. I can't act rashly against Tian Long. Who knows if he has a backup plan..."
"It's not advisable to confront Tian Long directly." Jing Xiaolu shook her head. "There is too much of a risk factor. If he has a good connection with the people who keep an eye on the Sun Family, as long as he is in danger, the people will harm the Sun Family's people or hold the Sun Family's people as hostage. That will be troublesome; this will be self-defeating."
Yang Ming nodded. Wasn't Jing Xiaolu's point what he was afraid of? From the previous contact, Tian Long wasn't like an ignoramus. On the contrary, he seemed very smart. Especially when the behind-the-scenes boss was behind him, Yang Ming was even more afraid to act rashly.
"However, I have a viable solution, but it can only solve the immediate need, and it can't solve the root of the problem." Jing Xiaolu thought for a while and said with regret.
"What solution?" Hearing that Jing Xiaolu had a solution so quick, Yang Ming was a little surprised. "You thought of a solution already?"
"There is no other choice." Jing Xiaolu said, "Actually, I just said that. In the movie of Young and Dangerous, Shan Ji bought over Brother Kun's subordinates with money. In other words, since Tian Long can buy over the Sun Family's subordinates, this proves the subordinates are all greedy people. As long as you offer a higher price, they can naturally be bought over again! This can take away Tian Long's power, so he can't make any commands. His conspiracy and plans will fail on their own.
However, this plan requires a lot of money, and the time and cycle might be longer. After all, through buying over Tian Long's subordinates one by one, if you can make an opening, the person who is being bought will help you to buy another.."
"This is indeed possible." Yang Ming fell into contemplation after listening to Jing Xiaolu's words. Indeed, Jing Xiaolu said that this is the last choice, but it is indeed the most feasible way.
However, these Sun Family's employees keep being bought over and over again. Although I can take back power from Tian Long, what about the future? There is no guarantee that these people won't be bought over again...
Jing Xiaolu probably thought of the same problem. When she saw Yang Ming frowning, she said, "Are you thinking what if these people get bought over again in the future?"
"How did you know?" Yang Ming was slightly shocked. This Jing Xiaolu is quite smart.
"Hence, I said this is the last choice; it can't deal with the root of the problem." Jing Xiaolu was also very distressed. "If it were like martial arts novels, you could give these people a Three Carrion Beetles Mind Control Pill 1 [2], and then they won't dare to mess up!"
Three Carrion Beetles Mind Control Pill? The speaker was unintentional, but the listener was interested. Jing Xiaolu was probably just joking, but Yang Ming thought of a very important thing that was voodoo.
Yang Ming didn't know what a Three Carrion Beetles Mind Control Pill was, but according to the introduction in the TV series or novels, this should also be similar to a type of voodoo. After eating it, the voodoo venom would be lurking in the body. If the consumer didn't take antitoxin drugs from time to time, he would die.
Yang Ming remembered that Lan Ling seemed to have said that voodoo had such similar effects too. Moreover, he had Zhang Zhishen with him. When Yang Ming thought of this, he had a brilliant idea.
However, this was also because of Jing Xiaolu's inspiration. If he let Tian Long's men consume the voodoo, they would definitely have no second thoughts.
This was also a once-and-for-all way so that they didn't dare to betray in the future. It also saved many troubles for the Sun Family.
"Xiaolu, thank you for reminding me. I actually thought of an idea." Yang Ming was immediately excited as he thought of this. Yang Ming could completely move them by threat and temptation, and he could even let them suffer a living hell using acupuncture.
However, this could only be limited to one time, but not forever. Once Yang Ming left, it was difficult to guarantee that they wouldn't have second thoughts again. However, if he let them consume the voodoo, would they dare to betray without the antidote?
"Thank you? Thank you for what?" Jing Xiaolu was stunned by Yang Ming. "My suggestion is not very mature. In other words, it really takes a lot of trouble to implement it. Not everyone can be bought twice!"
"I'm not talking about this!" Yang Ming shook his head with a smile, "I am talking about the Three Carrion Beetles Mind Control Pill!"
"Three Carrion Beetles Mind Control Pill?" Jing Xiaolu was astounded. "This kind of thing can only exist in the novels. How can it be true? Otherwise, do you know how to make this?"
"I don't think so, but some people know how to make something similar!" Yang Ming said, "You don't remember what I told you before? Lan Ling's family is a voodoo family; they are best at using voodoo! Regarding the Three Carrion Beetles Mind Control Pill that you mentioned, there should be something similar in voodoo. When the voodoo prescription is out, I can just let them consume it. I won't even need to spend a penny. I bet they won't dare to stand on the wrong side!"
"Yeah!" Jing Xiaolu listened to Yang Ming's words, and she was very happy. "How can I forget this!? I also read Wesley's novel about voodoo. The novels also said that voodoo can prevent someone's betrayal; the person will explode once he betrays. I'm not sure if there is such voodoo. If there is, then this matter can be solved easily!"
"I don't know whether such voodoo exists or not, but there must be a kind of chronic flare-up voodoo. Every once in a while, it needs an antidote to suppress it. If the person didn't take the antidote on time, he would die of the poison," said Yang Ming.
"This can work too." Jing Xiaolu nodded. "If I knew you had such a convenient means, I wouldn't have to think so hard. You can just give them the voodoo and see if they dare to listen to Tian Long. Tian Long will be a commander without power by that time; everyone will have betrayed him... haha ..."
......
Jing Xiaolu and Yang Ming were right; Tian Long wasn't stupid. After learning that Tian Donghua had already confessed to Yang Ming, Tian Long became more and more cautious.
"Little Wang, come in." Tian Long pressed the intercom system on his desk and spoke to the person outside.
After a while, there was a knock at Tian Long's office.
"Please come in," said Tian Long.
Little Wang pushed the door of the office and walked in. This Little Wang wasn't someone else; he was Sun Hongjun's driver who was a spy arranged by Tian Long.
It must be known that the people around the boss were very difficult to be bought over because the boss treated them very well. Therefore, if Tian Long wanted to bribe them, it was likely to reveal his own plan.
Therefore, Tian Long directly placed Little Wang, who was initially his man, as Sun Hongjun's closest driver and bodyguard. In this way, once Tian Long was in trouble, Little Wang could work from the inside with Tian Long to help him to seize power.
Moreover, Jing Xiaolu also guessed it right. It was obviously very difficult to buy over Little Wang for a second time. Little Wang was originally Tian Long's man. He had betrayed Sun Hongjun once and decided he wouldn't betray Tian Long again.
If Yang Ming tried to buy over Little Wang and failed, then he had no way to back down. If he killed Little Wang, he would alert Tian Long, then the plan of buying them over would be ruined. If he didn't kill Little Wang, Little Wang would tell Tian Long about Yang Ming trying to buy him over. The plan would still fail, so the plan of buying over wouldn't work.
"President Tian, were you looking for me?" Little Wang asked respectfully.
"Pick a time to go to the place where the Sun Family is being held. Tell the person in charge, Zhang Jinguo, that if you or I don't contact them on a day, have them kill the hostages." Tian Long hesitated for a long while before commanding plainly.
Tian Long was also afraid that Yang Ming would play tricks, so he had to prepare in advance! If the Sun Family had the help of Yang Ming's forces in Song Jiang, they could regain power. Therefore, in the face of morality and interests, Tian Long could only violate his promise and kill the Sun Family! He wouldn't allow any accidents to happen!
He didn't own everything he had now easily; he wouldn't allow these things to be lost from his hands!
Therefore, Tian Long had to take early precautions. Once Yang Ming really brought people over to Donghai, he had to get rid of the Sun Family, so that the Sun Family's original men would be completely loyal to him. They wouldn't betray again when the Sun Family reappeared.
